Favorite Sonic Youth Lyrics?
Sonic Youth - The Diamond Sea
Blood crystalized as sand and now I hope you'll understand you reflected into his looking glass soul and now the mirror is your only friend The lyrics really get you thinking, and I can emotionally connect with them. Washing Machine is one of my favorite albums. |
Small Flowers Crack Concrete
death poems for the living gods of america plastic saxophones bleat, bleed for nothing, nada cops crashing thru doors infuriated by silver charms of suburban smoke at war with patches of red dirt glitter and bluejean fucking and protest... NYC Ghosts and Flowers can you cover up the one that floats? can you push back the hours? i hear yr voice, i speak yr name among nyc ghosts and flowers will we meet? to run again? thru nyc ghosts and flowers My favorite album at this moment... Texts are great maybe exept "Nevermind" :) |
Beauty Lies in the Eye is the perfect Sonic Youth song.
There's something in the air here Makes you go insane Brings you back to me It's been so long Alls I have to do is live along It's coming, coming down over me Do you want to see the explosions in my eye? Do you want to see The reflection of how it used to be Beauty lies in the eyes of another's dream Beauty lies lost in another's dream It's coming, coming down over me Do you want to see the explosions in my eye? Do you want to see The reflection of how it used to be Hey baby Hey sweetheart Hey fox, come here Hey beautiful Come here sugar |
this she did in public for us to see
she came in here too drunk to do the show between the trains and cars broken glass and lost hub-caps, images of a gun row house row house pass through let the city rise up to fill the screen clothes flung out of closets, doorknobs falling off the guitar guy played real good feedback, and super sounding riffs with his mild mannered look on, yeah he was truly hip the girl started out in red patent leather very I'm in a band with knee pads we watch her fall over and lay down, shouting the poetic truths of high school journal keepers row house row house pass through, let the city rise up twister, dust buster, hospital bed, I'll see you, see you see you on the highway now we're told so merge ideas, of song forms and freedom miss seafood, miss cheesecake, a couple of miss donuts the edge of a blade pressed to the throat of your reflected image poised, yet totally screwed up yes sir, yes sir, step right up |

Hmmmm.......maybe:
My violence is a dream a real dream a skinny arm a crush on living skin my violence is a sleeping head nodding out to rising bliss i left home for experience carved 'Suk For Honesty' on my chest my violence is the number coming out of prayer find it in the father find it in a girl there's a thing in my memory holding on for dear life with a feeling of secrets beating up under my flesh my tongue is tied i'm sleeping nights awake Tom Violence is a dream coming out of a girl |

"Wintertime come summer You are why it's happenin'" |
I like Karen Revisited.
|
everybody's talkin bout the stormy weather. what's a man to do now with our weather? it's true.
gotta love it. diamond sea is amazing. also sweet shine I hear my angel mountain baby Pretend to everlast a lady Marlboro belt buckle baby They told me you were just crazy I feel that I could burst Give me a little drink of your sweet time Is it the way you think Or just a pattern of your glory Is it just some story You wrote all for me You think you're my home Deep down you're just a little whorey I know you I'm from you |
I love the lyrics from Inhuman and Sunday
|
I usually don't pay much attention to the lyrics.
|
I don't think SY have that great of lyrics. I like that one song though "You Look So Underfed." I can't remember any of the other lyrics but it was good.
|
Tunic?
Don't you know your SY better than that? |
No. I don't.
I don't listen to SY much. |
OK, fair enough.
I just realized I contradicted my last post in this thread by identifying that song by the lyrics. Oh well. |
I can't pick just one my hats off to Thurston Kim & Lee for all writing such great lyrics.
|
She's not in your history books, lost her mind and kept her looks
Down beneath the radar screen, she's lit up like gasoline Been through a million kicks, looking for the one that sticks Never would have known it then, I might not see her again. That or maybe Star Power; something about "Close my eyes & think of you/everything turns black to blue" sits well with me. Strange, cause I generally prefer Thursdon's lyrics/voice. |
"red patent leather, very "i'm in a band""
|
"...with kneepads."
Always found that addition amusing. |
Bump!
|
A few off the top of my head:
Got to change my mind before it burns out - Candle Smoke and Flames... Allright! - In the Kingdom #19 When the seasons circle sideways out of turn, And words don't speak, just fall across the carpet, You're just in time to watch the fire burn, And it seems a crime, but your face is bright and you love it - Mote All of Tom Violence Take off your mask, Lay off my brother Kiss my fist, Stop at nothing - I'm Insane Come closer and I'll...take off your dress I'll shake off your flesh - Shaking Hell Silly rabbit, Trix are for kids, Your carrot souffle's got me on the skids - In the Mind of the Bourgeois Reader The guitar guy played real good feedback, with super sounding riffs - Skip Tracer |
I find the lyrics of Shadow Of A Doubt perfect.

Where Are You Now, When Yr Broken Eyes Are Closed?
Head In A Cloudy Dream Of Green And Sailboats? Borrowed And Never Returned, Emotions, Books, Outlooks On Life... |
"Watt here"
"I'm downstairs in this window, through a pub phone booth, if you're up, I get tense..." Beep! "Thurston?" "Watt..." "Thurston... I think it's 10:30, we're calling from Providence, Rhode Island, did you find your shit?" "You gotta watch the motin' Thurston, your fuckin memory just goes out the window. We couldn't find it in the van at all, we're wondering, if you looked in that trash can. When we threw out that trash, man, was the bag in your hand, did you dump it? Call later. Bye." |
wish fulfillment
genetic hey joni almost all lee's songs he's the fucking poet |
hard to choose
I kneel before the green light of her singing crayon eyes and then i kiss her stomach and it's then i realize her light is the night i'm not blind i believe in you i see a green light i see a green light i see a green light |
Marilyn Moore....she's full of disorders, depends what yr used to...bruises from bottles that never get better, bad baby bitching she screams at the door, hammer in hand and head to the floor, Marilyn Moore

Green light and Dripping Dream.

A 100% of my love up to you true star
Smile this girl on the strip You really learn just how to be hip Tell your stories about your crazy trip messing with stars and doing tricks Seaside lover gonna rock the boat Gonna roll it up fast superdope Yeah pass it around or stick it on a pin Boojie lover with the bunny skin My plastic lady here's a glitter roll Straight from my heart through my soul Light talking gold in the rain Lights vibing dark in the saint A cat in gold goes alone Theresa's sound for the king I took a look into the hate It made me feel very up to date Does this sound simple? Fuck you! Are you for sale? Does fuck you sound simple enough? Shots ring out from the center of an empty field, Joni's in the tall grass. She's a beautiful mental jukebox, a sailboat explosion, a snap of electric whipcrack. She's not thinking about the future, not spinning her wheels, she doesn't think at all about the past. She's thinking long and hard about that high wild sound, and wondering will it last? Time takes its crazy toll... |
Lyrics I don't get:
What A Waste You're So Chaste I Can't Wait To Taste Your Face ?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! |
